The Spin
Republican narrative
Huerta, who clearly cares more about illegal immigrants than American workers, obstructed federal officers from conducting a lawful raid. After his arrest, the liberal media has fomented widespread unrest and rioting with its false narratives, neglecting to mention the illegal activities of employers and the illegal migrants they've hired. Sadly, Democrat-fueled political unrest has become the norm.
Democratic narrative
Huerta is a U.S. citizen who was exercising his constitutional rights by observing the punitive immigration raids. In a stunning display of solidarity, labor leaders and politicians have stood up for Huerta and those detained, who refuse to let the Trump administration bully them into silence. Huerta has stood up for the undocumented and vulnerable, and Democrats are now standing up for him.
